DANGER IN WAITING.

Some days ago lad forged check in
Kansas City for several hundred dollars,
and presenting the same to bank it was
honored. Soon after the company interested
found out the fact, and the bank was mott
fed. The authorities commenced a hunt
and in addition some detectives were en-
ployed. A thorough hunt of that city made
fairly certain that he had bounced that sec
ton. The authorities Of this city We're mott
fed to keep a look out for the man with
such and such description One day an
officer thought he saw the man, and being
engaged in q business thought the SNAP
would not spoil until some more evidence
could be gained The Kansas City authorities
were apprsed of the suspicion and detec
tive Immediately boarded train for Wichita
He arrived Monday morning, but much to
the surprise of the officer in the city who was
shad owing the man, his object of attention
did not put in an appearance st the office on
Monday morning. The town has been hunt
ed through aud through, but the fellow not
found.
The information seems to make it evident
that the party was the one desired, and
caught onto the danger OF his position and
escaped in time The detective is thoroughly
disguised with his sort of luck, but the chase
is not ended. A pointer is ahead.

city for the purpose of determining the
feasibility or chances of putting up per
manent building for the exhibition of the
Battle of Gettysburg, on the same plan OF
the permanent exhibition and building of
the same work at Chicago. After looking
the ground over, taking in the towns and
cities tributary to this, he thinks that there
can be no doubt touching the success OF the
enterprise in Wichita. The painting is a
grand one worth many thousands of dollars
The permanent circular building would cost
between fifteen and eighteen thousand dol

THE TWO INDIAN BOYS.

| L. +. McMeachon Esq. has returned from
the Territory where he has been engaged for
some time in the collection of evidence to be
presented to the president in urging a COM
mutation of sentence of the two condemned
Semenoles, John Washington and Simons
| Wolff.
| He says he travelled almost 400 miles in
| wagon and on horseback over this wild coun-
| try, sleeping in Indian huts, and living upon
corn, but succeed in gaining some very inn
portant testimony for his clients
He finds that the woman Mrs Bartell is of
Cherokee descent. This he can substantiate
not only by her own testi-
| mony but by the atfadavits
of many reputable persons living III the vi
entity. Should this fact be clearly establish
Ell the plea to the jurisdiction OF the United
States district court in the cases can be sus-
tanned
Mr.. McMeachan also thinks there is a great
deal of jealousy and i'll will existing tow al ds
the boys from the Interpreter. The latter,
be thinks made the effort to have the boys
punished IN order TO get them out OF his Own
way and not In the furtherance of justice Or
the peace and quiet OF the Seminole nation.
He discovered, too, that the con-
demned youngsters are not of such
terrible bad character nor the
woman upon whom the assault was
made so pnre and virtuous as the State is
trying to make out.
Mrs Bartell, the woman in the case, was
not seen, as she was at ner husbands ranch
IN the Pawuee Nation. The relatives of the
prisoners take an interest i'll the case, but
they have little understanding of the nature
of the punishment or the means 10y which
the TWO boys can be saved. Besides they are
little assistance in the defense

NARROW ESCAPE.

Many railroads now run into the city of
Wichita, and there are, in several instances
more than one platform a., which passen-
ger might suppose all trains stop 4 large
number of persons were standing at one OF
these places yesterday morning waiting for
a train. This as not a regular stopping
place, and the cars which were to be taken
passed the place at an ordinary city rate OF
speed One Of the gentle men, 10 show his
ability, attempted to get ABOARD. This he
failed to do. He grasped the end rail Of
one of the cars, but the veloaity Of the
train was too great for his strength and he
swung between the car ends. The next
thing the bystanderAeaw was q fall Nearly
all turned their heads to avoid being wit
nesSes to the horrible spectacle of a man be-
ing cut TO pieces. There was yell, and ali
was quiet. Whea the train had passed the
crowd saw lying beside the track the body
of man, but although alive aud uninjured
it refused TO move. By an act of Provi-
dence he motion of the train had thrown
the body aside leaving it untouched, but the
fellow was so badly scared that he neither
spoke nor moved until assisted from his re-
Ginning position Train men say it was the
aarrowest escape they ever witnessed.

BUILDING STONE.
Mandatory Located in Wichita by Company
with a Capital Stock OF One Hundred
Thousand Dollars,

Arrangements for starting another enter
prise of dimension have been practically
completed. A company has been formed for
manufacturing the Brunswick stone Those
interested are W. Z. and L. L. Carlisle, N.
A. English, J. o. Davidson, ". Daulaney, z.
'. Healy, B. 81. and W. c. Campbell.
The stone will be made of sand and Port
land cement to which will be added some
chemicals. There is a patent on the stone
which dates back to 81. There are man
ufacturies established in New England, New
York, Indiana and Kentucky. The Office of
the leading company and manufactury is
located at Covington, Kentucky. One of
the leading men of that company is Mr..
Phillips. Some months ago Mr.. L. L. Car
Isle wrote to him concerning locating man.
ufacture at this point He replied that he
would give the matter attention and visit
Wichita as soon as business would allow. As
a result he arrived in the city near six
weeks ago, and it was then that the question
was presented to the business men of the
city in earnest. They were favorably i'm
pressed with the enterprise and decided to
form q company and commence its manu-
facture as soon as possible. The charter of
the company calls for a capital stock of
100000. The company has the exclusive
right for manufacturing in this state. The
stone is said to be Of superior value for
building purposes. 1t is used quite extern
siyely in the sections where it is manufac-
tured. Mr. W. K. Carlisle has decided
to erect fine residence of the same on
Waco avenue. The company has not
decided where the plant will be located. 1t
is desired to get as good shipping facilities as
possible. The matter Of location is one that
is now attracting the attention of the COM
pany, and will probably be determined in
few days. When that is decided work on
foundation will be commenced.
At first the plant will probably give EN-
ployment to fifty hands. There seems to be
no doubt but that the enterprise will prove a
success and the capacity will be steadily in
creased as the demand requires. This causes
the company to suspect that the plant will
before many months give constant employ
ment to hundred hands

When Jesus said he came to fu fill the law,
why does Paul say the law was done away in

it is impossible for him to sin, or is a man
that commits sin sanctifed!

they tried their boots on him. This finally
became monotonous, and one gave him a slit
in the side With his knife, and tried TO whet

dealt out al officer was sent for. On arriv-

that the man so terribly beaten up
gave no possible cause FOR such

that they could handle HIM, they would en-

Ar THE BAPTIST cauRcH.

Last night the Young Peoples Society
gave an entertainment and social at the First
Baptist church. 1t is well established fact
that the ladies of the Baptist church never
undertake an entertainment of any kind
without attaining The highest point of sue
cess in all that pertains to the mental and
social qualities.
Besides providing an occasion to meet new
acquaintance and enjoy the exercises ar
ranged for the evening it was proposed to
charge small admission fee for the purpose
of applying it on the amount pledged by the
young people to the Baptist church now
nearly completed on the corner of Emporia
avenue and Tenth street, pledged by the
young peoples society.
The exercises of the evening commenced
with a vocal solo, Il fear no foe" by VIM.

heartily encored, and responded to the great

manner the piano solo entitled Blazing

j. F. Sherman, then announced that the
literary portion of the program had been
completed, and the social and refreshment
features were then to occupy the remainder
of the evening. After thanking the audi
ence for their attendance and those " no
kindly aided the entertainment, the infor-
nallty OF everyone making himself at home
was then the rule of the evening The table
walters were Mrs Stanley, Mrs. Pittenger,
Mrs. Mrs. Rose, Miss Frances Foster, Miss
Florence Foster, Miss Rose Westgate, Miss
Minnie Moore, Miss Sybbelle Herring, and
Miss Mamie Gilbert. At the close
OF the evenings entertainment it was
by the president that the net pro-
ceeds had reached SOS 90. and that the liberal
hearted member Of the association who had
promised to double the amount realized by
the entertainment had nobly come forward
and the full amount of $4,000 pledged to
the new church was entirely liquidated. Al
together it was most enjoyable affair, and
its object was fully accomplished.

A FORGER ARRESTED.

Mr.. A. b. Coe came to this city some
m onths ago from Pontiac, Michigan. For
some weeks be has been clerk for Cole g. Co.
in their real estate office. OF late often he
was in a condition unfit for duties, and SEEM
ed to make but little effort to improve. His
dissipation led to his discharge Monday
last.
Yesterday about IL o'clock Mr. j. r. Cole
learned that Mr.. Coe was Gushing" as usual,
and some of his old chums had given the
word out that he was flush with money
This caused Mr. Cole to suspicion that some
thing was wrong, as he knew that Mr.. Coe
was not financially cheerful. He went to the
Wichita national bank and learned that Mr.
Coe had near $50 o'clock presented check
which bore his name. The check called for
s6S so, and was paid.
This information was sufficient to com
mence the hunt. Mr.. Coe Informed Police
man Frank Brasier, who started on
the hunt. Mr.. Coe was soon
found at the fremont hotel
He was in an intoxicated condition and did

that everything had been done correctly.
Mr.. Call went to the Office and found that
the instrument had not been filed When
he was searched yesterday the instrument
was found in one of his pockets.

The Garfield opera house, Crawford opera

the grand opera of ''Fatinitza'' at the Gar

themselves of the opportunity this evening
to witness the best opera ever produced in
Wichita, will certainly regret it.

GARFIELD OPERA HOUSE.
Fatinitza was repeated before very fair
sized and most enthusiastic audience last
nsght, and went considerably more smoothly
than on the first night Nothing can be
more pretty and picturesque than the stage
setting and quaint costumes of the cadets In
the first act, and the noisy finale with its
accompaniment OF guns and colored fire
brought down the house. The leading mem
bers were encored, and the famous marching
trio received triple encore; the delighted
audience wanted it a fourth time, but even
operate singers are human. Tonight there
ought to be- good attendance, as most of
our regular theater goers were at other en-
tertainments. One member of the troup de-
serves especial mention. Lee Walker, who
performs the fat eunich with an honesty of
purpose, rich, unctuous humor that is de-
hcious, and makeup that with all its home
illness, is life-lke picture of what we sup
pose those gentlemen to be.
CRAWFORD'S
Last evening Hugh Fay and Billy Barry
opened two nights engagement at Craw
ford's. The play presented was the popular
Irish comedy, Irish Aristocracy." The
house was crowded and the performance
heartily enjoyed.
The Muls- Mulcahey aud Muldoon-two
humorous but entirely different and distinct
types of Irish character, were represented by
Messrs. Barry and Fay respectively. Both
are so amusing that from their first appear
ance to the closing of the three-handed reel,
there was hardly a situation that did not
keep the audience in roar.
The support was very acceptable, the repre-
sentation of Mrs. Muldoon by Miss Kate
Quinten and Honora Muldoon by Miss Elma
deserving especial commentator. Mr.. Lacy
as Peter Becher, practical joker, took
good care of his role and contributed not q
little to the fun.
The comedy viii be repeated this evening
and viii no doubt be greeted by another
large audience.
